Attacking Africa's Poverty

Drawing on the findings from twelve case studies, this publication sets out examples of successful poverty reduction strategies in Africa, in order to learn from these experiences and to highlight the reasons why they succeeded and ways in which they can be reproduced and enlarged. The publication is organised into three sections: an integrated overview of Uganda's experience over the last decade; issues relating to improving the investment climate with examples from Rwanda, Senegal, Kenya, Botswana, Mauritius and Tanzania; and strategies to tackle social exclusion and deliver services to poor people in Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Uganda, Ghana, South Africa and Zambia.
